Hi, Just to let you know (not sure if you care ) that one of the latest hotfixes released from Microsoft causes MASSIVE slowdown in Windows when installed.
The Hotfix in question has the ID : Q811493 to find out if you have it installed there are two ways: 1st : Go into add/remove programs in the control panel, Scroll down the list and try and locate the hotfix Q811493, If present highlight it and remove/uninstall it, If that does not work. 2nd : Open Windows Explorer, Show hidden files/folders, Navigate to C:\Windows\$NtUninstallQ811493$\ in that folder there will be a second folder named
This will remove the hotfix. A restart may be required If you need any info I usually lurk around here Last edited by Trebor95; 2003-04-27 at 08:56 AM. |

MY apologies, Jim[sF] it is Q811493 that is the cause of the slow down - I mistyped the hotfix
Update : I was wrong in naming the hotfix as Q811435. The hotfix should have read Q811493 Jim[sF] I would strongly reccomend uninstalling that hotfix m8. Apologies again thats what you get for posting at half 2 in the morning |

Heh, ok, I just wanted to make sure, seeing as how you can never be too sure about Windows anyway...
Also, it gave me a long list of programs that it said "may" not run properly if I were to uninstall it; tell me, since you have uninstalled it yourself, did it affect any of your games and most importantly, your system in any way? |

Planetside was on my list of programs that it would affect. Knowing it wouldn't, I uninstalled it anyway. Everything is fine, and it does seem faster! Damn that hotfix...
